Today scope without showing day scope

Last weekend I flashed ubports-image to my E 4.5. What I am missing now in today scope is the day number and information about sunrise and moon phases. That was displayed on top of the screen before. Marius Quabeck filed a bug in launchpad more than a year ago (https://bugs.launchpad.net/today-scope/+bug/1547007). Is there a way have the dayscope back. The screen looks naked without it.

@darkeye The missing scope must be this one https://launchpad.net/day-scope. Any idea to get this thing back into the phone or into sphere of ubports? Marius Quabeck mentioned in the Telegram-Supergroup, that the code could be proprietary and therefore misses in the images. I wonder if the maintainers of the package (not downloadble) could give a little help.

If I remember it right, the news scope itself is an aggregating one that relies on other scopes. I think I had BBC installed. Probably good to keep in mind for a nice out of box experience for the image to consider the whole set/chain of scopes.

BTW Does anybody knows which scopes are already migrated to UBPorts / openStore?
When I was switching to UBPorts, the most scopes I had to install from the old Ubuntu store and if I remember correctly, this store will be closed at some point of time, so we would loose the possibility to install scopes.

Is there some work ongoing to port some scopes to UBPorts? I would be willing to help with this task.

Looking on the following page it seems that the Todays scope uses the following scopes in the same order if installed:

@marcokarlo well I dont know of any scopes that we transferred to our Github, and from the core team no one is working on scopes right now, so you can fill in this position :)

@sverzegnassi had a cool idea how to continue with a new "meta-scope" concept since in general UBports does not want to continue the current scope concept on the long run for various reasons. Maybe you can take a look at his screenshots (were they put only on Telegram Stefano? =)).

For the present of course we can transfer/maintain/integrate the most important "system" scopes. So yes, please go ahead, write me a PM with a list of Launchpad branches that you need.

It's just an early exploration done through a QML mockup, the UX design is currently the same used for scopes.

Conceptually, it should work as a JSON documents aggregator. Apps would be able to update their data in background, using the new account-polld service, or during app execution, and the homescreen would fetch those new data once they become available.

This way the homescreen would work like a sort of Google Now clone, without sending user's infos here and there. Everything relies on the availability of those data locally.

What it would get lost is the ability to perform per-scope and remote searches, however it would enforce a proper model where advanced features are provided by apps only. In any case, we could add a search bar in a different tab in order to allow online searches via Google, DuckDuckGo, etc. anytime.

This would be available for all the third party apps that'd like to use it, with the only limitation that their "homescreen widget" could expire if their data are not up-to-date.
